Very cool.

So do we... I'm betting a lot of Sideshow cubicles are going to have this hanging in them

 

[Vader AL]

well because i sat at work hitting refresh instead of going to lunch at my normal time i missed signing for jabba and his throne. dangit! i'll be out of town till saturday so i guess i'll get to see jabba then. at least, hopefully, i'll get my darkness order in. oh why so much secrecy with sale time and ES?

 

[darth dypshyt]

bears repeating:



We really appreciate all your Darkness love, but there's no need to panic! Relax, chill, enjoy your day, and you'll get your spawn of hell soon

Well, I am going back to bed then...yawn....I hope you're right Dusty..Don't do a Tom/Darth Maul and say.."sure there'll be plenty left.." (sorry for bringing that up Tom.. )

Dusty...in case you're reading this...

We're in the middle of an ice storm - power out - here on Long Island (NY), and I am writing this on my laptop...connected via my cell phone to the internet, and being powered by a generator.

I wish for once Sideshow would stop f**king around with these preorder times and post 'em when they say they will.

This REALLY pisses me off.

Did you miss the part where Dusty said that she has NO control over when the items get posted on the site? Cut her some slack.

 

[tomandshell]

They® didn't announce a preorder time.

On an unofficial fan site, Dusty said that it would hopefully go up anywhere between 9 and 10 unless something went wrong.

So the use of "hopefully" should have clued us in that there was no time set in stone. And she also made a point to prepare us for a delay.

There was no official announcement at sideshowcollectibles.com that "Darkness WILL go up for preorder Wednesday at exactly 9 AM."

We got an hour long possible/hopeful window along with a disclaimer. Let's take it easy on poor Dusty.





But BSHERRIS--You might just be the most devoted fan I have ever seen!! I hope your power comes back soon, and I hope you are among the first to get your order in for Darkness--no matter how or when it happens!!

Wasn't blaming Dusty per se...I said SIDESHOW as an organization.

Oh, and Happy Valentine's Day everyone! I'm listening to Andre 3000's 'Happy Valentine's Day' right now :chew

Everydays the 14th! Good song... thats an odd album, I love about 1/2 of it and the other 1/2 not so much.

But why complicate pre order when sideshow could send all pre order in same time and not make people waiting, don't want to not sleep just for pre order item when release all in same time is possible

 

[tomandshell]

As an organization, Sideshow officially said this:

We will be posting more pre-orders tomorrow along with some great announcements!

We also saw this:

Also this:

And don't forget to watch for the pre-order to be posted on Wednesday, February 14th!

Finally, this:

You will be able to place your pre-order for this fantastic figure, measuring in at approximately 23 inches in height, on Wednesday, February 14th at SideshowCollectibles.com. Be sure to check out every detail of the product with our Sideshow 360 [click here]. Watch our Toy Fair coverage for all the details!

i feel your pain. i had the same kinda crap today, snow, ice, power, surgery, blah. but i asked a very kind soul to order for me. took alot off my mind, even tho i was able to make it to the comp to order. definitely not Dusty's fault. and SS probably didn't expect this kinda turnout/attention or it woulda set up a PPO.

Finally, this:

...and your point IS??

 

[IrishJedi]

...and your point IS??

That there were absolutely no promises as to WHEN the item would be active on the site for pre-order... just sometime today.

 

[tomandshell]

...and your point IS??

My point was, after you said this:

Wasn't blaming Dusty per se...I said SIDESHOW as an organization.

I wanted to show that Sideshow "as an organization" (your words) never said anything other than the fact that Darkness would go on sale on Wednesday. You said that they should "stop f**king around with these preorder times and post 'em when they say they will."

My point was that "as an organization" they never gave us a specific time. They just said to watch the site on Wednesday. If it goes up on Thursday indtead, then we can accuse them of not doing what they said they would do.

But I do sympathize with your sitatuation and I hope you get your order in.

It sounds like 1 PM PST is the best time to check. Although it could be later. If it isn't posted on the web site, any time you hear is just a good guess.

 

[akamonrg]

It's better when they announced PO time, no surprise, no wait, you know when and you just have to be on sideshow website at the hour they told you.
